  • National Trucking Industry Woman of the Year
  • National Professional Driver of the Year
  • National Training Excellence Award

“I urge anyone who knows of an exceptional member of the trucking industry to come forward and nominate them for an appropriate award.

“In particular I encourage all of the ATA’s state and sector associations to nominate those unsung hard-working individuals that I am sure you all know,” ATA chief executive Ben Maguire says.

“This country runs on trucks, and we wouldn’t be able to operate efficiently if not for the hard work and dedication of people who go the extra mile to make sure Australia’s goods are moved in a safe and professional manner.”

The awards will be presented at Trucking Australia 2017 – June 21-23 – at the Darwin Convention Centre during the gala dinner on the ATA Foundation Sponsors Day, June 23.

The Don Watson Memorial Award and the TruckSafe John Kelly Memorial Award, will also be presented on the night.

Nominations close 21 April 2017.

Nomination forms can be found here.
